Can I replace the "gdb" and related subdirectories in the source with corresponding patched 4.18 directories and expect the rest of Insight to work fine? The only reason I wan to use Insight instead of ddd is to get it working under cygwin (without X). Any GUI support is better than working with the bare commandline (as it exists today for the m68k-palmos-coff build). > Too bad. You should work on integrating your gdb patches into the > main line. That is the best thing for everybody. I am only a user of the product. Moreover the patches, as it exists today, aren't GNU friendly, I heard. The maintainers are working on integrating the patches back to the main GNU source. But that won't be available anytime soon. Thanks for your time. -- Hari.
